Mr. Prall, of the Prall Mercantile
company, who gave ins opening last
week, is very favorably impressed
with the reception he has received

grets very much that some of his
goods were delayed in arriving f r
the opening as he had anticipated
they would be, but tliey are coming
in every day nnd his stock will be
built up ns rnpidly ns they arrive.
Some neonle think times nre a lit
tle slow in St. Johns, but a look at
the record of building permits will
show thnt there has been n pretty
good business doing in the city's
growth since last November. The
record was commenced on the tirst
day of that month with number 1.
This week wc nave passed the cen
tury mark in that record, as will be
seen by reference to our columns.
The people of St. Johns generally

Babbitt likes it here very much bet
ter than tu nerre and It they can
make their arrangements will return
here as they still retain their prop
erty in Point View. Of course they
had the Review sent to them each
week, where it goes with our best
wishes for their success and a safe
return to St. John.
The abominable crime committed
in Baker City Monday night seems
almost incomprehensible. There
may be some excuse for such ac
tions in Russia, where the people
are made worse than slaves by the
persecutions of the autocracy, but
here where men are free there is
none. Nothing short of a disposi
tion asdiabolicalasthat of the fiend
incarnate could desire such a thing,
much less to put it in execution,
and there is no punishment on earth
severe enough to expiate such a
crime. Ex-Sheriff Brown had a
number of friends iu St. Johns who
knew him well and speak of his life
in the highest terms.
A Large Attendance Should

trolley will be taken to Grctihnm.
The fore for the round trip will not

may be no need for any enforce

This is an age of education, and
the child who does not take advau

the utmost iu discharge of his duty.

known both these young people
ever since they were little children.
They are of the best of the earth,
and we wish them all the happiness
and prosperity that such ixrople
deserve. They will make their
home in St. Johns and we bespeak
for them a host of good friends as
soon as they become known to our
people.

Computing Machine.
The adding machine is a boon to
the weary bookkeeiwr. There nre
adding machines and adding ma
chines, and not every one is as
ingenious and capable of doing the
work of one recently left iu the
office of the city recorder for him
to play with.
We were over there yesterday
for information and asked him to
play it little tune on it for our del
cctation. Mr. Essou is nothing if
not accommodating. That is part
of his profession. He had heptem
Iter's receipts ready to be footed
and in about five minutes he had
them all recorded 011 the machine
simply by playing 011 a lot of keys
looking much like the keys of our
Smith-Premier. Then he asked us
how long it would take us to foot
up the column which rati up into
seven figures. We replied it would
take some time as the column was
about a foot long. He simply
touched a little lever and pulled
another, when, presto, the footing
showed on the paper.
He also showed us how the diff
erent operations of correcting errors
testing for accuracy, etc., were
made and we noticed there was one
lever he did not touch. Like any
chump that was just the lever we
wished to know all about and told
him so. Mr. Essou replied; "Oh,
I don't just know what that is, I
have never used it," and pulled it
to him. He nulled the throttle
wide 0(1:11, ami this started the
machine going. It is a fine piece
of uicchatilsm.
